numpty question, but is this bright enough for DIY work like painting etc, y'know when you've removed all the lights on the ceiling and you need some good bright light!

Worth considering for portable use is the Screwfix LED rechargable lamp, it's not as bright at 23watts but does give a reasonably decent light and has 2 settings and gives about 4 hours runtime. I found it bright enough in a smaller room for painting etc - room was 4x4metres. Works on built in lithium battery pack or via mains adaptor. screwfix.com/p/l…K5Q
